Chrome OS is the big news

Android app developers made Android a huge hit. News reveal the soon entrance of Chrome OS in the market. Laptops are soon going to be seen running Chrome OS. Google said that it was in need of an OS that runs on anything and everything and Chrome OS is going to be the best suited one.
